BECKLEY COLLEGE HONORS
HIGH SCHOOL SENIORS
Some 300 high school senior studefrts from 17 schools were honored the evening of April 28 by Beckley College, Beckley, West Virginia, at a Spring Friendship dance, held at the Masonic Temple from 8:30 to 11:30 p.m.
This annual event, initiated several years ago, is under the present sponsorship of James Trimboli, accounting instructor at Beckley College. Three student "good will" repre-sentatives, and one faculty member visited the various schools near Beckley a week prior to the dance, extending a personal invitation to the seniors to attend the informal ttffair given in their honor.
Warren Richards and his popular orchestra provided the music for dancing, and refresh-ments were served.
Mr. D. K. Shroyer is Executive Vice Presi-dent of Beckley College. He highly recom-mends the "Friendship Dance" idea to busi-ness colleges looking for an interesting and well remembered promotion idea. In this way, prospective students become acquainted with faculty and student body at Beckley, become aware of the higher education and fácilities offered by Beckley College, and the prestige of the college is enhanced through newspaper and radio publicity, as well as highly valuable "word-of-mouth" advertising. The plan should be particularly effective within a 50 to 100-mile radius from a par-ticular business college.
ENROLLMENT UP 110%
IN N. CAROLINA SCHOOL
A happy note for the depressed school men of the country is the fact that April, 1952, enrollments at Kennedy's Commercial School in Durham, North Carolina, were 110% above April last year!
Last October, Kennedy's Commercial Schopl was purchased by Mr. and Mrs. Wilmer P. Wilson, and the location was moved to 1105 West Main Street, which is out of the busy shopping district of Durham.
The school was previously operated by A. Virgil Kennedy, who recently opened a comp-tometer school in Greensboro, North Carolina.
A group of A.I.B. students enjoy the new Iowa Room, Des Moines, Iowa. Good food, good musk, afid good conversation are the rules for a good time here! The Iowa Room, opened April 1st, already has gained wide acceptance and popularity among the A.I.B. student body.
